The Playlist: 102.1 the Edge's Top 102 New Rock Songs of THE 2000s


Local Toronto new rock station 102.1 the Edge played their top 102 new rock songs of the 2000s over the past weekend. I'm not sure how they compiled this list, I'm guessing it's through people's votes, but I decided to post up the results anyways and remember, it will contain a lot of Canadian talent. While I don't completely agree with this list, it doesn't make it any less interesting to see what music came out this past decade.
